Nokia Video Manager - copy and transcode videos

26 replies · 17,134 views · Started 12 April 2007

Nokia has released Nokia Video Manager for Windows PC. The software helps you copy videos to your phone and transcodes them on the fly (converts them to an optimal format). Nokia Video Manager supports conversion from avi, mpeg, wmv and mov (DivX, XVid, MPEG-2 and Quicktime codecs) to mp4 (H.264). As such it is only compatible with devices that can play back the H.264 format.

Read on in the full article.

I have to say, this is a class act from Nokia. Greatly simplifies things and i don't need to jump between M3 and Super for my video conversion needs. I really was wondering when they would release an update for the very dated Nokia Media Converter.

Good job.

Yeah I'm impressed too. You will get better result if you tinker yourself, but this does a good job and the integration with the phone / PC suite is nice as it makes getting the video on to the phone dead simple.

I don't see N73 as being compatible. All my videos come out in the phone as audio only.

I haven't tried it out on an N73. As mentioned you do need support for H.264 which I am fairly sure the N73 did not have at launch.

However Forum Nokia tables suggest it does now, so a firmware update might help.

The Nokia Tables indeed say that N73 has H.264, however I have the latest FW for MusicEdition (which is the latest of all N73 versions, V 3.0705.1.0.31) and still nothing. Maybe only vanilla N73 FW has support for H.264 ? Can anyone that uses vanilla FW N73 could test that?

All I get in mine is the sound of the video.

I tried it on E61 and RealPlayer only played the audion, not the video of the mp4 clip.

I'm on generic N73 firmware (3.0704.1.0.1) and I'm getting audio only too.

When I try to play a converted video in Realplayer it first gives an "unable to play clip" message then says "attempting to play each separately", then just plays the audio.

I converted 2 files. The third ... and every subsequent attempt to convert result in a progress bar that never progresses, and no video conversion. Reboots etc made no different.

As with other comments, my E62 plays Audio, but no video.

"I really was wondering when they would release an update for the very dated Nokia Media Converter."

Totally agree. Thank goodness they have done so.

N73 has H.264. Just guessing: some parameters (bitrate, FPS etc.) might be optimized for the officially compatible products and thus RealPlayer gives the error message. The message is always the same regardless of the actual error (missing codec, wrong parameters, ..)

On my N95, Super seems to produce a lot better video quality (I set it to 320x240 25fps 500kbps video), as Nokia Video Manager only has 3 settings, low/medium/high quality. And high quality was only 15fps and low resolution.

Although I did not have my N95 connected to the PC at the time, so I don't know if it automatically adjusts when it detects different phones.

My conversions to My Collection folder always fail and I get a "An unknown error occurred. Check log file for more information." message.
Any help?

Videos created with this app seems to play well also on N93.

I used this program to convert a XviD, avi file and I got a very funny upside down mirror effect, the image was upside down, and it was as if u where locking in a mirror... so it diden't realy worck for me... XD
PS: I have an nokia N95

And no-one seem to have a resolution for that. Also I could not choose "High Quality" which results in just 15fps 😞 I have a 2GB memorycard, with 1�GB available - so that should'nt be an issue. Also newest firmware 12.0.0.13.....

Looks like this piece of new software is hopeless. No-one knows for sure which handsets support H264. Oh well - back to a Windows device with the bombproof TCPMP for me!

Tried uploading mov files to my new N95 8GB but couldn't see anthing only the Audio is heard.
Any suggestions?

Hi All,

Related to your above posts, when i tried to open any .mov file in Video manager, it plays it in a strange manner.....after sometimes, the application hangs itself and makes my screen white in the background where the video file was played.........Any clues :con?

Video manager works gr8 for small files (music vids n stuff) but flips the video vertically while converting full length movies.... so all the stuff appears as mirror image....

After converting video (WMV -> mp4) with Nokia video manager, it plays only the first 40% of the video in reaplayer om my nokia E71. Audio continues , but video freezes . Have tried it with 2 videos with different length (1hr:08 and 38 minutes) both stopped at 40% of the video length. ffwd beyond 40% wont work and skips back to a couple of seconds before 40%.
Anyone else having this issue and know a solution ?

Thanks

I updated my Nokia N73 firmware V4.0735.3.0.2 RM-133 to the latest version V4.0839.42.01. After successfully updating, when I open my video files the Real Player say's "unable to play either sound or video clip trying to play partially" it went black and played only the sound. Now it only plays 3gp files, what kind of update is this? When I called Nokia to ask for a remedy, the tech support told me just to convert all my mp4 to 3gp. For me, it's time consuming and the quality is not as good as the mp4.

Can anybody suggest what to do? Besides installing smart movie, because I already did that. Is there's a way to repair the real player? It works fine before updating.

I tried first converting the videos to mp4 with the ipod video converter and then dragging them to the nokia pc suite(didn't use the nokia video manager) and worked just fine, except for the video effects(slow motion, etc), my phone is a 6120 classic, so I dont thinks its the real player but the video manager itself thats not working.
Sorry for my bad english.
